I have just purchased my first item on ebay and I am wondering how many of you use the shopping site? I have sold things before but never bought anything. Now I have moved to Bulgaria I do not have a postal address and items have to go to my Post office and it is not always reliable. So I was dubious that I could shop online and actually receive the items. But I bought a computer game from Amazon and that made it so I thought I would bite the bullet and shop on ebay. Fingers crossed it makes it here from Hong Kong! Do you shop on ebay?

I will say that Ebay is great to shop on,because if you use paypal and you do not get what you have paid for you get intouch with paypal and they refund your money.My husband has always used Ebay and got loads of great things off there.We have shopped on Ebay for years and never had any problems at all.My daughters are always getting thiongs like ear phones,also clothes,watches,etc from Hong Kong,bargain prices from there.

Yes, this is true, the security you have when you use Paypal is really great! I have never had any problems either. Once I did not get the item I got, but I got a full refund instead, so I can't really complain...

Yes! On a regular basis, and I absolutely love it! I have gotten so many things there over the years, and I constantly get complimented on stuff I buy there, because no-one else has them where I live.
Not to mention the prices are really good a lot of the time, which is really an added bonus, if you ask me!

Yes. I shop on ebay all the time...well, when I have money that is. You can find all sorts of really cool stuff and it's all in one place. You just have to be careful that you're buying from a respectable seller and make sure you read all the details like condition of the item and returns policy. I love ebay. :)

I don't buy so much as browse. I like looking at all the old, one-of-a-kind items that I, unfortunately, cannot afford. :P
I've gotten a few things from the site. All have arrived very quickly. I've only bought from sellers in the US and I live in the US, though.
I hope everything works out for you!

I have always sold things on e-bay, because of money issues, cannot buy anything. The way e-bay is set up though they have a very good checks and balance system and you can always make a claim if something is not legitimate. I would caution you to always check a sellers rating before you buy from them.
